Developed over 100 years ago by Joseph Pilates and his wife Clara, Pilates is a proven exercise system using spring-based equipment to strengthen and stretch the body from the core to the extremities. Through precise movements, breathing techniques, and concentration, Pilates delivers a full-body workout while centering the mind and supporting overall well-being.
Polestar Pilates integrates traditional Pilates with the latest scientific research to bring physical, emotional, and spiritual alignment to each individual. By combining Pilates, physical therapy, and movement science, we deliver results that improve strength, posture, flexibility, and ease of movement. This comprehensive approach is why athletes, dancers, entertainers, rehab patients, and those seeking overall wellness choose Polestar Pilates.
At Polestar, we apply current findings in orthopedics, sports medicine, and movement science to the principles established by Joseph Pilates. Our deep expertise in rehabilitation and movement science allows us to add manual therapy, advanced body awareness, and motor control theory to enhance Pilates’ foundational methods. This expanded approach makes Polestar uniquely suited to address both rehabilitation and elite performance.
Polestar Pilates is on a mission to bring physical, emotional, and spiritual alignment to the world. We believe in the holistic integration of mind and body, empowering individuals to find balance and well-being not only through movement but also by fostering an environment that supports emotional and spiritual health. This alignment is at the heart of every session, whether you’re recovering from injury or striving for peak performance.
Polestar Pilates stands out for its customized, holistic approach. Unlike programs that isolate body parts, Polestar trains the whole body in smooth, continuous movements, enhancing proper alignment, coordination, and balance. This whole-body training results in elongated, strong muscles and a greater sense of physical harmony, allowing you to move with ease and confidence.
Our studio uses state-of-the-art Balanced Body® Pilates equipment, and we’re known for helping clients get in tune with their bodies through our focus on alignment and functional movement. This unique approach is trusted by professional athletes, performers, and individuals from all walks of life seeking rehabilitation and movement excellence.
Polestar Pilates dramatically enhances strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and posture. The result is a long, lean body, with slender thighs, flat abdominal muscles, and a strong back. Beyond the physical, Pilates at Polestar offers a deeply relaxing and revitalizing experience that supports your emotional and spiritual alignment as well.
Our mission is to help you move through life with greater ease, less pain, and enhanced physical and mental function, bringing you into full alignment on all levels.
